Stories From The Trail

Episode 017 - O Dog Rollin'

In 2016 O'Ree Crittenden set out to hike the Georgia section of
the AT. This would be enough of a challenge for any of us, but
O'Ree attempted this without the use of his arms or legs.

O'Ree (aka "O Dog") became paralyzed after a serious spinal cord
injury 15 years prior, but instead of giving up, he became
evenmore active. His perseverance and
indomitable spirit have driven him to pursue outdoor activities
with even more vigor than before, and now he serves as a "peer
supporter" for others with similar injuries.

Hear O'Ree's story, and prepare to throw away any excuses you've
ever had for not attempting a goal. In this episode we talk about
food, gear, and as always a little bit of poop, with a lot of
inspiration.

About the Podcast

Stories from the Trail is a podcast by and for people who love to talk trail. We don't limit our conversations to hiking, but most of us are hikers and we'll probably go there a lot. Hosts Gary Sizer (aka "Green Giant", author of Where's the Next Shelter?) and Megan Thompson (aka "Voldemort") will bring you their conversations with people who live outside.
